Podcasts about Buena Vista Social Club

Some performances fade. Others stay with you for decades.Buena Vista Social Club is one of them. It isn't just a musical—it's a masterclass in resonance, memory, and experience.In this episode, we're pulling B2B marketing lessons from that spirit of storytelling with the help of Dan Lowden, Chief Marketing Officer at Blackbird.AI.Together, we explore why content should come first, how honesty builds brand resilience, and what it takes to create live experiences your audience will talk about for years.About our guest, Dan LowdenDan is the CMO at Blackbird.AI and leads the company's strategic marketing efforts, including demand generation and brand leadership. He has over 20 years of strategic experience at the executive level. He has served as CMO at cybersecurity firm HUMAN Security (acquired by Goldman Sachs), named one of the TIME100 Most Influential Companies of 2023. Lowden also served as the CMO at Digital Shadows (acquired by Reliaquest) and, before that, CMO at Invincea (acquired by Sophos) and VP of Marketing at vArmour (acquired by Night Dragon). He has held marketing leadership positions at Wayport (acquired by AT&T), IBM ThinkPad (acquired by Lenovo), NEC Technologies, and Sharp Electronics. Lowden holds an MBA in International Business from Rutgers Graduate School of Management and a Bachelor of Science from Rider University.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Buena Vista Social Club:Content is the foundation—not an afterthought. Even in cybersecurity, content is king. Dan says, “My first hire was a content person. You can have the best ABM strategy or tools, but if you don't have really valuable content, you're not going to get anywhere.” His advice? Lead with education, not asks. Thoughtful reports, relevant use cases, and engaging narratives will earn your audience's attention—and their trust.Honesty builds brand resilience. When it comes to trust, marketing can't cut corners. Especially in high-stakes industries like cybersecurity. Dan says, “There's been a lot of overstatement of things by marketers and salespeople. That's when marketing takes a ding.” Instead, he urges CMOs to stay grounded: deliver real value, communicate with clarity, and show your audience you're in it for the long haul.Live experiences create a lasting impact. If you want your brand to be unforgettable, you need to create moments that move people. “People still come up to us today and say that band and that experience 10-plus years ago—they remember. There's not been anything like that,” Dan says, reflecting on a live concert his team produced. Whether it's a concert, a rooftop dinner, or a one-of-a-kind conference, remarkable experiences turn into word-of-mouth—and brand love that lingers.Quotes*“To me, in marketing—B2B or B2C—it's about creating a relationship, trust, even friendship, a community with your audience.”*"If you treat your customers well, if you serve them well, if you're honest with them… then you have a chance of being very successful as a company.”*“Music is really, really important, really powerful… as a marketer, especially in cybersecurity where there's 5,000 cybersecurity companies, you have to do something different. You have to stand out.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Dan Lowden, CMO at Blackbird.AI[03:42] The Magic of Live Theater[06:21] The Role of a CMO in Cybersecurity[10:23] Understanding Narrative Attacks[14:29] The Evolution of Narrative Intelligence[22:36] The Story Behind Buena Vista Social Club[28:31] The Power of Live Music in Marketing[30:33] Creating Remarkable Experiences[39:21] The Importance of Content in Marketing[45:05] Final Thoughts and TakeawaysLinksConnect with Dan on LinkedInLearn more about Blackbird.AIAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

In this episode, we sit down with the dynamic Elizabeth Rodriguez—actress, Broadway star, and proud Nuyorican—for a conversation about her journey through some of television and theatre’s most impactful roles. From her breakout as Aleida Diaz on Orange Is the New Black to her polarizing turn as Paz Valdez on Power, Elizabeth opens up about the love, hate, and everything in between that comes with playing complex characters. We also dive into her latest film Allswell in New York, a raw and heartfelt portrayal of sisterhood and struggle, co-starring fellow Latina powerhouses Daphne Rubin-Vega and Liza Colón-Zayas. Elizabeth shares how growing up on Manhattan’s Upper East Side as the daughter of Puerto Rican parents shaped her perspective—and her passion for telling real, rooted stories. Plus, we talk about the growing wave of Latino narratives on stage, including Broadway’s current productions of Buena Vista Social Club and Real Women Have Curves, and why representation isn't just important—it's urgent. This is an unfiltered, inspiring look at identity, resilience, and the magic that happens when Latinas rise together.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"Chávez Ravine" can mean many things. Obviously, there is an area in Los Angeles by that name. But there is also a book, a short documentary, and a Ry Cooder album, in that order. Cooder's 12th solo effort wouldn't exist without the book or the documentary. Like the Buena Vista Social Club, it came about almost by accident. And again, it was an opportunity he knew how to seize. It became his own ode to a lost Shangri-La – a masterful street-corner opera.This podcast frequently uses small snippets of musical recordings in podcast episodes for educational, review, and commentary purposes.

At the beginning of the new millennium, Cooder was once again deeply involved in world music. He released two back-to-back collaborative albums, this time with Indian flutist Ronu Majumdar and Cuban guitar wizard Manuel Galbán. As with his collaborations with V.M. Bhatt and Ali Farka Touré ten years earlier, he mostly took a back seat and helped them do their own thing. We also talk briefly about the Cuban follow-ups of the Buena Vista Social Club and some of Cooder's other session projects.This podcast frequently uses small snippets of musical recordings in podcast episodes for educational, review, and commentary purposes.

The Buena Vista Social Club was by far Cooder's biggest commercial success. At the time, he probably thought it was business as usual – working with a bunch of interesting and skilled musicians from a different musical culture, as he'd done so many times before. But this time he hit the jackpot. The importance of the album and the subsequent documentary cannot be overstated. It is the most popular recording of Cuban music in history, and it opened up the island's culture to the West as never before.This podcast frequently uses small snippets of musical recordings in podcast episodes for educational, review, and commentary purposes.

Su reinado en las victrolas coincidió con los últimos años 50s. Más de seis décadas después Blanca Rosa Gil continúa siendo una de las voces más hermosas y distintivas del bolero cubano. Sus primeros singles, producidos por la etiqueta Panart hacia 1957 cristalizaron una creciente popularidad ganada, a puro aplauso, en la pista del "Ali Bar" el famoso local regenteado por Alipio García, ubicado en la periferia citadina. Para 1960 redoblaba sus éxitos en radio y televisión mientras que sus grabaciones producidas por el sello Modiner asentaban ese estilo tan suyo, entre sentimental y tanguero, acentuado por los arreglos de los pianistas Severino Ramos y Joaquín Mendivel, a cargo también de las conducciones orquestales. Los ecos de los éxitos de "La muñequita que canta" son parte indisoluble de las memorias de una nación que, negándose a desvanecerse del todo, persiste en la nostalgia de más de una generación de cubanos, dentro y fuera de la isla. Eliades Ochoa: de Songo la Maya para el mundo. Su temprano vínculo con un instrumento como el tres lo llevó inevitablemente al mundo del son, la guajira, el bolero y la canción trovadoresca. Su trasiego por el Quinteto "Oriental", el Septeto Típico y el Cuarteto "Patria", así como su similitud vocal con el mítico Guillermo Portabales, han definido su huella en la música popular de los últimos treinta años. Hoy repasamos algunas de las grabaciones de Eliades Ochoa con el Cuarteto "Patria". Sin dudas el empuje comercial del proyecto "Buena Vista Social Club" fue decisivo para que su carrera fuese bien reconocida dentro y fuera de la isla. En su voz la obra del genial Antonio Fernández (Ñico Saquito). José Antonio Méndez: "el King", "el Ronco", a pesar de tener "pegados" en las victrolas de los primerísimos años 50s varios temas de su autoría, decidió probar fortuna en tierras aztecas como lo hicieron otros artistas y músicos cubanos que le antecedieron. José Antonio, con su habitual humildad, creyó que el representante de la RCA Víctor mexicana Mariano Rivera Conde "lo estaba vacilando" cuando le propuso grabar varios discos con arreglos y respaldo orquestales del tremendo melodista, pianista y compositor Mario Ruiz Armengol. El sorpresivo éxito que tuvieron estas grabaciones fuera de Cuba validó el estilo interpretativo del King. La calidez de su voz y la sencillez con que "ponía" los temas en el escenario con su guitarra le aseguraron, desde entonces, la fidelidad del público mexicano. Entre sus trabajos discográficos de los primeros años 60 sobresale una producción en complicidad con los pianistas Frank Emilio Flynn, Rafael Somavilla y el violinista urugüayo Federico Britos. En los minutos finales algunas de las voces entrañables de la radio cubana. Los ecos de los veteranos estudios habaneros, aquellos importantes escenarios del éter donde artistas y agrupaciones ofrecieron su arte en directo. Desde los estudios de la CMQ de Monte y Prado: Gerardo Pedroso, una de las voces olvidadas del danzón. El 21 de agosto de 1948 le acompañó la Orquesta Gris a cargo del maestro Armando Valdés Torres. Así cantó la guaracha de José Claro Fumero: "Bemba colorá". Los tiempos de gloria de la música popular cubana. Gerardo Pedroso regresa como bolerista. "Mira que eres linda", otro clásico cubano original del maestro Julio Brito. Sonidos que nos recuerdan la importantísima plaza artística que fue La Habana. Seguimos viaje ahora a los estudios del guajiro Amado Trinidad Velazco, el mayor competidor de CMQ. En julio de 1947 en RHC Cadena Azul, bajo el influjo del llamado danzón de nuevo ritmo, la Orquesta Unión interpretaba "Las cosas de Vega", combinación de la pieza de Orestes López con un fragmento de la suite "Cascanueces". La última parada es en los estudios de la Radio Cadena Suaritos ubicados en la calle 25 del Vedado habanero. María Teresa Vera y Lorenzo Hierrezuelo cubrieron infinidad de horas en las míticas audiciones del gran Laureano Suárez.
